— MR . 54k ..... can you repost what you just said in plain english?
May 27, 2010 at 2:23 p.m.
Syscom3, I was thinking the same thing.
May 27, 2010 at 3:05 p.m.
Syscom,
I think ( I could be mistaken, I honestly dont know what language that is )he is saying the deceased who at the age of 13 was already bangin and apparently crossed paths with an older banger who was a "badass" so it only made sense for the elder to shoot the 13yr old. Couldnt pay me to drive down Slauson in a tank.....

Syscom, I responded to your post yesterday of what MR54K was talking about. Apparently it was too offensive because like most of my posts it was censored. I agree with you Syscom, and you can even scroll up the page a bit and look at EBRAZY's post....????? what the heck is that supposed to mean?? How exactly are you someones "killah" at 13....all those numbers and abbreviations is all gang BS....

JJ, more evidence of the social pathologies of these neighborhoods. Complete dysfunction and failure in every segment of their society.
13 year olds wanting to be gangsters. Grown men who see 13 year olds as targets. You cant make this stuff up!
But of course, the "Compton Cookout" was offensive. But not the gang problems.

— The TruTh, so are you saying the residents of these neighborhoods are no different from the people who live in the violence prone countries of Africa? Are you saying that violence is a way of life?
And why isn't the community demanding that the parents who create such monsters be held accountable?

@syscom3 ~ you said "And why isn't the community demanding that the parents who create such monsters be held accountable?" I AGREE. These kids deface property and parents are responsible. Why should they get off scott free for having these kids and then allowing them run the streets to ruin society?
